LOUISE NEVELSON | Laurie Wilson, Arezoo Moseni | An Art Book Series Event

In celebration of the publication of LOUISE NEVELSON: Light and Shadow, art historian and biographer Laurie Wilson discusses the remarkable life and art of one of the great sculptors of the twentieth century in a presentation that considers the key elements of Nevelson’s work, the links between her childhood experiences and adult life as an artist, the major influences on her evolving style, the challenges she faced to be taken seriously, and the relationship between her public face and the flesh-and-blood woman.

Following the presentation, Laurie Wilson and Arezoo Moseni converse about Nevelson’s unshakeable self-confidence, even in the face of failure, her relationship to other artists of her era (Mark Rothko, Diego Rivera, Willem de Kooning ), and the gallerists, curators and critics who shaped her career, most especially The New York Times critic Hilton Kramer and the  art dealer Arne Glimcher, founder of the Pace Gallery.
